25.01.2022 If youre feeling like a cheeky daytime G&T plus a lazy afternoon, we are now open for FRIDAY LUNCH. Bookings via https://dutchcourage.com.au/#booking

24.01.2022 Today we heard the very sad news that Mark Maric, our Head Chef from 2016-2017, passed away from a heart attack. Mark was happy to come and work for our little venue even though he had worked at top restaurants all over the country. He responded with energy & passion when we asked him to create a contemporary Moroccan share plate menu & his efforts lifted the quality of our food to a new level. More often than I can remember, customers would come into the kitchen after their... dinner and want to give Mark a big hug, so beautiful & delicious was his food. His signature dish was baked cauliflower with pistachio pesto, loved so much, it is still on our menu today. Our thoughts are with Mary & the children. RIP big fella xox For anyone that loved Mark or loved his food, feel free to make a small donation to his family here https://www.facebook.com/donate/827574594428779/ https://www.couriermail.com.au//2d7848c541ee4068339800dd82

20.01.2022 Garnishing a cocktail or a gin tonica is the final step and an important one. Not only adding visual delight but also aroma & taste to enhance the liquid. We want them to complement but not overwhelm. Here Tyrell adds a small lavender stem to draw attention to the floral notes in the beautiful Ink Gin.
